hello frnd,
--If you pour some dilute ethanoic acid onto some white sodium carbonate there is an immediate fizzing as carbon dioxide is produced.
--and You end up with a colourless solution of sodium ethanoate.
__________________________
reaction:
Ethanoic acid reacts with sodium carbonate to produce sodium ethonoate, water and carbon dioxide.
2CH3COOH + Na2CO3 → 2CH3COONa + H2O + CO2

sorry you are wrong
no water or carbon dioxide would be formed
hydrogen will make an electrophilic attack on the slightly negative carbon
and Sodium
oooo
okey thanks fr info frnd
☺☺
ur welcome dear

C5H7COOH +Na2CO3 gives in presence of Dilute sulphuric acid H2SO4 CH3COONa( sodium ethanoate ) + NaHCO3 ( sodium hydrogen carbonate)
